Formula 1 prepares for Monaco Grand Prix this weekend

The Monaco Grand Prix takes place this weekend at the historic Circuit de Monaco. Set at 3.337km with 19 turns, the event consists of 78 laps, totaling a race distance of 260.286km. Known for its challenging layout, the circuit has been part of the F1 calendar since 1950 and is renowned for its opulent setting. Drivers face a demanding test on the tight streets, with limited opportunities for relaxation between corners. Safety measures will impact vehicle aerodynamics, as new regulations prohibit the use of Straight Mode at Monaco, ensuring cars maintain maximum downforce throughout the races.
